The women's actions have earned them disapproval from some members of the Republican Party, who believe that the senators let down the GOP by allowing Obamacare to continue. Farenthold is more than disapproving; he says he'd like to duel the women for speaking out against Trump's plan, but only if they were a "guy from South Texas." Because they are not, in fact, men from South Texas, Farenthold is not actually challenging them to a duel.

In his full remarks to his local radio show, Farenthold said:

The fact that the Senate does not have the courage to do some of the things that every Republican in the Senate promised to do is just absolutely repugnant to me. ... Some of the people that are opposed to this, there are female senators from the Northeast. ... If it was a guy from South Texas, I might ask him to step outside and settle this Aaron Burr-style.
